Description

The Kellie Marie James Scholarship was established in 2022. Kellie and her husband started their family at a young age. Despite the associated hurdles, both were able to graduate from college, in part, from the generous financial support of their families. Kellie had a generous heart, believed in the importance of education, and thought everyone should be afforded the same opportunities she had. Applicants must be a young parent in need of financial assistance as a graduating high school senior or former graduate pursuing post-secondary education. The parent shall be defined as someone who is 30 years of age or younger serving as the primary custodial parent for at least one dependent child under the age of 16. Applicants must be a resident of Lancaster County, NE or a graduate of Crete High School, Crete, NE and attending a college or university. Applicants may renew this scholarship for one additional year. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Lincoln Community Foundation for more information.
